Hi, FSBlack,
As far as I know, this detector is equipped with Gigabit Ethernet interface (don't confuse with GigE Vision). This interface is not GigE Vision compliant, so, you will be not able to get the images with IMAQdx. But Varian provides relative simple API for communication. Install Ethernet driver from Detector's CD. Check that you are able to get images with VIVA software. Then use Varian API. All necessary functions located in VirtCp.dll.
For me was much easier to develop Wrapper-DLL for intercommunication. Theoretically its also possible to call VirtCP.dll directly, but then you need to figure out how transfer structures from LabVIEW to Varian. You need basic knowledge how to call external code from LabVIEW application.
For example, for initialization I have following function:
int LV_vip_open_receptor_link(char* path)
{
int result;
SOpenReceptorLink orl;
memset(&orl, 0, sizeof(SOpenReceptorLink));
orl.StructSize = sizeof(SOpenReceptorLink);
strncpy(orl.RecDirPath, path, MAX_STR);
result = vip_open_receptor_link(&orl);
return result;
}
Then simply call LV_vip_open_receptor_link from LabVIEW and detector will be initialized. Unfortunately I can't provide full "ready for use" source code (because used in commercial application).
Andrey.
